I have been invited to serve with the Peace Corps in rural Nicaragua. I am currently preparing for departure---paperwork, financial matters, purging clothes, selling belongings, and most importantly, spending quality time with friends, family, and Tiffany.

This will be an adventure with completely new experiences. I hope to share my culture with the people I meet and learn in-depth about the culture and society in Nicaragua. Hopefully I can help my community in a meaningful way or at least teach something interesting! I'm sure I will learn many things from the experience. I'm off to discover a different part of the world for myself. Not to be cliche, but I hope to find myself on this journey as well...
